Devoxx: Why Haven’t They Fixed This? by Maurice Naftalin, Stuart Marks

Java just turned 30! Despite all its shiny features, there are some long-standing annoyances—wonky type inference, laggy concurrent iterators, weird set-equality quirks, no native immutability, and mutable set elements that can break the collection. Feels like low-hanging fruit, right?
